Mindfulness

Mindfulness Training & Workshops

Organisations are currently faced with a range of challenges and scenarios that put significant pressure on their front line staff and management:

Technological advances mean that the workplace is now a 24/7 continuous cycle where employees are constantly bombarded with information to digest and often take their work home with them due to email access and other forms of modern day technological communication.
As a result the work environment becomes an overwhelming and stressful place where anxiety often takes over and performance is jeopardised.

Some of the common signs of high levels of stress in a team include:

Arguments and disputes between staff

General absenteeism

An increase in grievances and complaints

Greater staff turnover

In such a highly pressurised environment we often make choices based on the need to survive rather than thrive. We often respond with our impulses and emotions that often cause us to react and in turn overreact instead of having a sense of calm and control over ourselves and the way we respond to stressful situations. These responses are automated and often impact on our relationships inside and outside the workplace and significantly reduce our ability to be productive and reach our potential.
